Tim Kaine
-
@lawbee11: Agree. The version of Hillary in my dreams chooses Elizabeth Warren, though
-
@MrsSCB: Yes! I really just want to see Elizabeth Warren debate Pence. It would be magical.
-
I dream of Elizabeth Warren as well but I just think it is unrealistic to see an all female ticket but god how I wish it wasn't.
-
Considering she's done some recent campaigning with Elizabeth Warren, I'm really hopeful that's who she chooses.
-
Honestly, I think it's going to be a moderate white male to appeal to that constituency--so probably Kaine, though Vilsack or Hickenlooper on that list would fit as well. Brown maybe if they're worried about picking up Sanders voters/appealing to more progressives
-
@MrsKoala: DH and I were talking about this, and we kind of came to the conclusion that the people who won't vote for an all female ticket probably aren't going to vote for Hilary anyways. Both because of differences in politics, and also because if they don't want women as leaders, a male VP probably isn't going to help things that much.
-
@nana87: Agree. I'm a Virginia girl so I may be a little biased, but I absolutely LOVE Tim Kaine. He will also appeal to Southern voters who may not be able to choke down Trump and Hispanic voters as he is a former Catholic missionary who speaks fluent Spanish.
-
I think she'll pick Kaine. But I do love Booker.
-
She won't pick Warren or Sanders bc they would be too much competition for power / attention. Warren might run for President in 2020 (depending on 2016) or 2024 or 2028.
-
As a VA girl myself, I'm crossing fingers for Kaine. I can't imagine she'll pick Warren. She's already such a huge force of support even without being on the ticket, and she's also a bit of a wild card when she really gets heated.
-
My vote is for booker or Castro. I think someone younger and exciting would help get some undecideds or the younger vote. I think kaine is too safe and boring.
-
I hope it's Kaine!
Here is an interesting article on why he is not boring: http://www.newsweek.com/tim-kaine-vice-president-boring-480693

@jedeve: @mfa_lady: @winniebee: @caterw: @nana87: @lawbee11:
It's Kaine!
I actually don't know much about him. Gotta look it up.
-
@jedeve: great article! I think I like him
He seems reasonable and level headed and also committed to social justice which is a priority for me. I'm not religious but I respect that he is but doesn't want religion interfering with governance.

@bluestriped bee: Go Tim!
